Long-Term Outcome in Patients with a Solitary Peutz-Jeghers Polyp

Figure 1

A solitary PJP in the sigmoid colon was endoscopically resected with a snare device (a, b). Pathological analysis revealed that the resected polyp was hamartomatous, showing arborization of smooth muscle within the lamina propria (c, d). A solitary PJP showing sessile morphology was observed in the sigmoid colon (e). In another patient, a pedunculated polyp in the duodenum was diagnosed as a solitary PJP (f).
